Whole-Genome Sequences of Two Kenyan Aspergillus minisclerotigenes Strains.

ABSTRACT: Here, we report the sequencing of the whole genome, including the mitochondrial DNA, of the two highly aflatoxigenic Aspergillus minisclerotigenes strains MRI390 and MRI400 using the MiSeq and PacBio platforms and the generated assemblies. The strains were isolated from Kenyan maize kernels.

Whole-Genome Sequences of Two Kazachstania barnettii Strains Isolated from Anthropic Environments.

Project description:Recent studies have suggested that species of the Kazachstania genus may be interesting models of yeast domestication. Among these, Kazachstania barnettii has been isolated from various microbially transformed foodstuffs such as sourdough bread and kefir. In the present work, we sequence, assemble, and annotate the complete genomes of two K. barnettii strains: CLIB 433, being one of the two reference strains for K. barnettii that was isolated as a spoilage organism in soft drink, and CLIB 1767, recently isolated from artisan bread-making sourdough. Both assemblies are of high quality with N50 statistics greater than 1.3 Mb and BUSCO score greater than 99%. An extensive comparison of the two obtained genomes revealed very few differences between the two K. barnettii strains, considering both genome structure and gene content. The proposed genome assemblies will constitute valuable references for future comparative genomic, population genomic, or transcriptomic studies of the K. barnettii species.

Whole-genome sequences of 24 Brucella strains.

Project description:Brucella species are intracellular zoonotic pathogens which cause, among other pathologies, increased rates of abortion in ruminants. Human infections are generally associated with exposure to contaminated and unpasteurized dairy products; however Brucellae have been developed as bioweapons. Here we present 17 complete and 7 scaffolded genome assemblies of Brucella strains.

Whole-genome sequences of three symbiotic endozoicomonas strains.

Project description:Members of the genus Endozoicomonas associate with a wide range of marine organisms. Here, we report on the whole-genome sequencing, assembly, and annotation of three Endozoicomonas type strains. These data will assist in exploring interactions between Endozoicomonas organisms and their hosts, and it will aid in the assembly of genomes from uncultivated Endozoicomonas spp.

Whole genome analysis of local Kenyan and global sequences unravels the epidemiological and molecular evolutionary dynamics of RSV genotype ON1 strains.

Project description:The respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) group A variant with the 72-nucleotide duplication in the G gene, genotype ON1, was first detected in Kilifi in 2012 and has almost completely replaced circulating genotype GA2 strains. This replacement suggests some fitness advantage of ON1 over the GA2 viruses in Kilifi, and might be accompanied by important genomic substitutions in ON1 viruses. Close observation of such a new virus genotype introduction over time provides an opportunity to better understand the transmission and evolutionary dynamics of the pathogen. We have generated and analysed 184 RSV-A whole-genome sequences (WGSs) from Kilifi (Kenya) collected between 2011 and 2016, the first ON1 genomes from Africa and the largest collection globally from a single location. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that RSV-A circulation in this coastal Kenya location is characterized by multiple introductions of viral lineages from diverse origins but with varied success in local transmission. We identified signature amino acid substitutions between ON1 and GA2 viruses' surface proteins (G and F), polymerase (L), and matrix M2-1 proteins, some of which were positively selected, and thereby provide an enhanced picture of RSV-A diversity. Furthermore, five of the eleven RSV open reading frames (ORFs) (G, F, L, N, and P) formed distinct phylogenetic clusters for the two genotypes. This might suggest that coding regions outside of the most frequently studied G ORF also play a role in the adaptation of RSV to host populations, with the alternative possibility that some of the substitutions are neutral and provide no selective advantage. Our analysis provides insight into the epidemiological processes that define RSV spread, highlights the genetic substitutions that characterize emerging strains, and demonstrates the utility of large-scale WGS in molecular epidemiological studies.

Whole-genome sequences of two strains of porcine circovirus 2 isolated from calves in Germany.

Project description:Two new strains of porcine circovirus type 2 virus (PCV2), strains Ha09 and Ha10, were detected in calves in Germany, and the complete genome of each virus has been sequenced and analyzed. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that these strains belong to the PCV2b genotype cluster, a highly prevalent genotype found worldwide.
